Tar per Tree

30 blocks of beech produced 1.45 liters of tar. (0,0483 per block)

Decided to test Alder because Finnish wikipedia mentions it being historically used in tar production alongside Pine.

During an undetermined amount of time, Tar kiln full of Alder block produced 1.47 liters of tar. In the same time, Kiln filled with Pine blocks produced 6.54 liters of tar.

IIRC Spruce and Fir were mentioned to be good sources of tar as well.

Blocks

Tree	Blocks *1	Tar(l)	cases *2	Tar(l)/Block
Beech	30	1.45	1	0,0483 *3
Osier	80	3.66	1	0.04575
Warty Birch	80	3.86	1	0.04825
Mirkwood	40	1.87	1	0.04675

• *1) Default blocks: 80 (column to allow non 80-blocks cases to be added too.)
• *2) Same result case counter. (basic idea: More stats collection. Use a new row for an already present tree which has a different tar outcome. Random component check.)
• *3) Recurring Decimal
